Tempesta yawned exhausted from the days activities aswell, she followed close behind Delano. Curling up in his den she nestled herself between his big warm paws and purred softly. She nuzzled her face into his mane, Tomorrow's another day. Hmm...you know what's funny I haven't seen Vitani or Mheetu since he fought this morning." she muttered sleepily. "Goodnight.." she whispered licking Delano's furry cheek.
Marrone lifted his paw and rested it on Nyembe's shoulder, "Sleep tomorrow and you and the Princess will spend the day together." he said sternly. He nudged Alma with his muzzle and motioned for her to join him, Marrone circled his spot and laid down. Inhaling the wet air he nuzzled Alma before closing his eyes, "Good night."
OOC: Were going to say everyone made it to their dens to sleep. (:
--Next Day--
Weather:
The rain has been pouring hard since the night before, thunder storms. The lake is filling and spilling onto the bank. Possible flood? Maybe, but not yet. The ground is soaked and the thick black skies show no sign of slowing the rain.
Marrone awoke early to the loud thunderstorms and he sighed, today was another gloomy day. He quickly left Alma's side and stepped onto the soggy earth. The water was getting awfully high by the lake and his grey eyes noted the height it was at yesterday night. He padded into the gathering den, which was the larger den that Mheetu had decided to sleep in. Marrone stepped into the den and his paw wiped off a large rock in the center, crystal sparkled through. He reclined to his hinds and gazed at the crystal formation, his mind wandering.
Mheetu's furry ears twitched forward as Marrone passed him and he stood to his paws letting out a deep yawn. "What are you doing?" he said sitting across from Marrone. His own mossy green eyes looked at the flickering crystal stone.
Marrone looked at Mheetu and smiled, "When the rain gets bad, we gather in this den. We all tell our favorite stories Mheetu, some about how we found this place and some about what happened to us recently. When the others wake up and see what its like outside, they will come in and join me." he said with a smile laying to his belly.
Mheetu nodded at the King's words and laid to his belly across the den from him. His green eyes watched and waited for Vitani to pass through the entrance. He thought to himself about the story he'd tell, if asked. A beautiful story about the Pride lands and how warm and sunny the lands were.
Tempesta stirred softly as she heard a loud crack from the lightening, she jumped up spooked. Realizing what woke her up she gave a soft sigh and nuzzled Delano's mane, glad to have him by her side. She whispered in his furry ear, "Wake up....its raining pretty hard." she spoke. Her turquoise eyes gazed up at him and she licked his cheek before resting her head back on his paws.
